The Société Anonyme was an artists’ organization founded in 1920 by Katherine S. Dreier (1877–1952), Marcel Duchamp (1887–1968), and Man Ray (1890–1976). Over its existence from 1920 to 1950, the Société organized over eighty exhibitions of contemporary art and produced near thirty publications, in addition to assembling an extraordinary collection of artworks.
